Overview of the POWER() Function in SQLite
SQLite provides various mathematical functions out of the box, and one of them is the power() function (also available as pow()).
The power() function calculates the result of raising one number to the power of another. In other words, it performs an exponentiation operation. This function is particularly useful for mathematical operations where powers or exponents are required.
How ATANH() Works in SQLite
The ATANH() function in SQLite calculates the inverse hyperbolic tangent of a given numeric value. The result is the value whose hyperbolic tangent is the specified number.
A Quick Look at EXP() in SQLite
The exp() function in SQLite calculates the exponential of a given number, where the base is the mathematical constant e (approximately 2.71828). In other words, it returns e raised to the power of x for a given input x.
This function can be useful in scientific and statistical calculations involving exponential growth, decay, and other natural logarithmic-based transformations.

In SQLite, the LN() function returns the natural logarithm (logarithm to the base e) of a given positive number.
This function is helpful in mathematical calculations involving growth rates, exponential functions, and natural logarithmic transformations.

In SQLite, the degrees() function is used to convert an angle from radians to degrees. In trigonometry, angles are commonly measured in either radians or degrees, and this function helps to easily switch from one unit to the other.
How the SIN() Function Works in SQLite
In SQLite, the SIN() function calculates the sine of an angle specified in radians.
This is a fundamental trigonometric function that returns a value between -1 and 1, representing the ratio of the opposite side to the hypotenuse in a right triangle.
Continue readingUnderstanding the LOG2() Function in SQLite
The log2() function in SQLite calculates the base-2 logarithm of a given number.
This function can be useful for scenarios such as binary calculations, information theory, or situations where the base-2 logarithm is needed.

The tanh() function in SQLite calculates the hyperbolic tangent of a number.
The hyperbolic tangent is the ratio of hyperbolic sine to hyperbolic cosine, producing values between -1 and 1.
Continue readingUnderstanding the TRUNC() Function in SQLite
The SQLite TRUNC() function is used to truncate a number to an integer. It returns the integer part of its argument rounding toward zero.
TRUNC()is similar to CEIL() and FLOOR(), except that TRUNC() always rounds toward zero. CEIL() on the other hand, always rounds up, and FLOOR() always rounds down.
